Not direct from Sky Glass/Stream Remote 

 

You do the following instead 

Sky Glass

Home Menu screen

Apps and Inputs 

You can then select HDMI 1 or 2 or 3

 

When using Sky Stream

Use your TV remote instead as that will have a button for changing HDMI inputs

There's no dedicated button on a Stream/Glass remote for input change: Sky appears to have left this out because of incompatibility issues with previous Sky remotes and some television make/models.

A basic thing like this being missing defeats the purpose of being able to control your TV with the Puck control. A customer thumbs down from me ....or is it deliberate to make you just watch sky more ...mmmm I wonder ?

That's never possible for more than basic control anyway: a puck remote cannot get to television settings or on-TV apps, as is typically the case for handsets other than the one which ships with the television set.

Just received sky stream today and this is actually really a deal breaker, we will probably be cancelling and returning tomorrow.

This is a big miss for me. Don't need to control anything else but there's a lot of people with a games console they want to switch to and from. Crazy to remove it.

What's slightly baffling is that the Xumo Stream box in the USA (A Comcast product identical to the Sky Stream puck) kept the input select button on the remote...
